4th of July!

We started a new tradition last year!

We head up to the mountains and make breakfast in the morning.

The guys make the works! It is so yummy!

And the kids love to run around and play so it is pretty relaxing for us moms!

Grandma Taylor took some of the kids for a walk. Then we head back to our place to go swimming! Grandpa Nelson joined us for a swim this time... The boys had fun in the pool with grandma and grandpa and some of their cousins! Then we get all cleaned up and head to Provo to watch the fire works. We tried to do our own fireworks but we were on the wrong side of 9th east to be able to do fire works. But the kids still have fun running around and riding on the wiggly cars Trina and Spencer brought. I've liked this way of celebrating the 4th.... it makes it more relaxed then rushing to make it to the parade, and running all over town to make it in time for things. We will need to take the kids to the stadium of fire one of these years though! Hope you all had a good 4th of July!
